The iGP was a total failure and has been discontinued.

The Dell DJ is plain awesome! I have the iRiver H140, but I bought my sister the DJ. It actually sounds way better than my H140. The GUI is very pleasant and intuitive, the software (DJ Explorer) is very good, SQ is AWESOME, and it's very small and light. Very good player.

You define "best" based on your own needs. For me the best is definitely the iRiver H140.

The shuffle is not that big of a deal. You can always start from a different song and get a brand new playlist.
